My name is Mike Jeffers, Assistant Coach with the Word of Life Olympian program at Wilton Bible Baptist Church. I will be working specifically with boys in 3rd and 4th grades (Conquerors), as well as 5th and 6th grades (Champions). Although the look of the ministry may have changed, our passion for reaching the next generation for Christ definitely hasn’t! Our goal is to help your children develop the tools they need to become the Godly young men and women our world so desperately needs today. We are committed to not only teaching the importance of daily Quiet Time, Bible study, Scripture memorization, prayer and Christian service, but are as equally committed to being living examples of what we teach.
My wife, Melissa, and I have 5 beautiful children – James Michael (15), Jacob (14), Willis (11), Macee (6) and Lucas (3). We are residents of Calera and have been members of Bible Baptist Church for several years now. Although I grew up in Church and always claimed Christ as Savior, it wasn’t until I was attending college at the University of Alabama at the age of 21 that I surrendered my heart to the Lord Jesus Christ and truly committed to serving Him. That is why I have such a passion for working with young people – I want them to honor God in childhood and not wait until they are adults to serve Him!
Our Church also offers a Word of Life program for middle and high school students on Sunday evenings, as well as weekly worship services and Bible studies for the whole family. If you do not currently have a local Church that you and your family consider home, we welcome you to join us anytime! Visit our Church website for updated times of worship and a calendar of events.
